Actions against the political coup by the AKP-MHP against the HDP-run municipalities of Amed, Van and Mardin were organised in the cities of the Hague in the Netherlands, Montpellier in France and Basel in Switzerland.

ÖHP lawyer Sevda Aydın resigned from her duty as an auditor to protest the seizure of the municipalities of Amed, Van and Mardin. She said:"As a rights defender, I have to defend my people, as a lawyer I have to say that this is coup, not an appointment."

The political coup by the AKP that appointed trustees to Amed, Van and Mardin municipalities was protested in Cologne and Marseille. The mayor of Cologne Andreas Wolter said he considers the appointment of trustees dangerous.
